Last week, our team returned from Koh Samui after rescuing two coconut monkeys. One of the macaques, Bang, was in a particularly terrible condition, with a metal collar embedded in his neck.
Rescued – One-year-old Long-Tailed Macaque
Noo Deang (Red Rat) is a one-year-old Long-tailed macaque that was purchased illegally from Facebook when she was a tiny baby. As with most wild animals that are kept as pets she grew and started to become aggressive, it was the final straw when she bit her owner. They then called WFFT for help in providing her with a new home. She should not have been purchased in the first place but luckily her owners saw sense and she will now have chance to be a monkey again. We have numerous groups of similar aged macaques so watch this space for updates on Noo Deang making new friends.
